Orange County Headshot Photographer
I’m Reem, a professional photographer and personal branding coach based in Orange County, California. I can help you strengthen your digital identity and create the perfect headshot or portrait.
I came to photography from graphic design, so I think about a headshot as a designed object — the crop, the colour, the space around your head, and where the image is going to live. I’ve photographed Orange County professionals since 2015, and I trained in the Peter Hurley method for the direction.
Let’s work together to create the best shots you have ever had!

FAQ
-
Please arrive camera-ready, with hair and makeup already done. I handle touch-ups on set. If you would like a professional artist for your session, I can connect you with one — they work independently and charge separately, currently $300. Email abousaif@icloud.com at least a week ahead so it can be arranged.
-
Yes, we can provide on-location headshot photography for teams. Our experienced team will travel to your location with a fully-equipped pop-up studio, allowing us to deliver the same high-quality results as you would get in a professional studio setting. However, we recommend visiting our state-of-the-art studio for individual headshot sessions, where you can enjoy the full headshot experience without distractions.
-
When deciding what to bring, consider the norms of your industry. Aim for a balance between classic looks and a few that feel more like you. We photograph two to three outfits in a session, so bring a handful of staples you know you look and feel great in, and we will choose together.
-
When selecting jewelry for a photo shoot, consider a piece that will subtly draw attention to your face and eyes, such as a delicate necklace or small earrings. Choose pieces with a simple design that won’t overpower your look but will add a touch of personal style. If you have a special piece with sentimental value, you can consider incorporating it into your look. However, taking a few shots without jewelry is a good idea to let your natural beauty shine through.
-
Contactless payment via debit or credit card is available. Please be prepared to purchase your selected images during the session. If you need a receipt for your expenses, we will provide it digitally after the session.
-
Your session fee is $300. Images are purchased separately, a la carte, at $150 each — you buy only the ones you truly want, and you choose them right after the photography portion of your session.
-
Yes! You are welcome to bring a friend, spouse, or family member to your session for your comfort and moral support. For those under 18 years of age, a parent or guardian is required to attend the photo shoot.
